‘Echo of Now’ is the collection theme for fall/winter 2026. The collection creates pieces with memorable value. They are designs that transcend the moment and leave a mark. They seem like notes that linger in the air after the final chord. Each piece tells its own story through unique prints and vibrant colors that capture movement, light and rhythm.
The new season begins with a fresh, energetic lime green. Timeless navy blue and ecru form the basis. The trend is warm chocolate brown and a muted butter yellow, complemented by a cool mint tone. Monochrome outfits impressively showcase every color. Burgundy remains an important accent, but takes on a new note when combined with lilac. Stone tones and black form a neutral frame.
One of the sources of inspiration is the animal world. The classic leopard print appears in irregular spots, different sizes and on different backgrounds. Romantic floral patterns range from minimal to maximal, capturing the fleeting beauty of fall. An abstract paisley motif brings together the theme’s color palette and appears as both an all-over print and a panneaux print. In addition, bold geometric designs with sharp lines add an industrial touch. Checks are also key. They look most modern in combination with deep black jeans or leather pants.
The materials are as diverse as the styles. Light bouclé knitwear is the perfect companion for the transitional period. Innovative yarn blends are particularly relevant for the knitwear from Bodelshausen. They combine natural and synthetic fibers for more stability and unique textures. Elaborate jacquards demonstrate the brand’s knitting expertise. High quality is evident in wool, silk, cashmere, mohair and alpaca, while structured cotton yarns play an important role in the transition into autumn. A luxurious look comes from fine goat suede, lamb nappa leather and satin finishes. Shimmering lurex adds a touch of shine and everyday glamour. Denim comes in darker tones with a more sophisticated look. For fashionable pieces with a fun factor, colorful faux fur is a must.
Skirts are taking center stage this season, whether mini or midi. Their versatility makes them valued styling partners. Wide trousers remain current, plus mom and O shapes as well as flared legs. Belts draw attention to the waist and significantly reshape the silhouette. Short patent-look trench coats and reversible double-face coats are also important players. Feminine accents can be seen in ruffles and lace. In contrast to this are influences from the 1980s and subtle punk elements. These are reflected in strong shoulder accents, chain details and piercing-inspired buttons.
Patent leather in the iconic leopard design can be found on baguette bags and pointed kitten heel boots. Tonal fringes are a fashionable detail on bags of various sizes. Boots and ankle boots come in square or pointed toes, while chunky loafers ensure effortless casualness. Silk scarves with the prints from the collection round off the accessories portfolio.
